I pose this question because everyone seems upset about the Roy thing, but in reality if we can sign EG and a decent defensive minded C, we can get more scorers and be a more rounded team than last year.

Re: Which team would you rather see take the floor?

man just stacking team A aren't we... but realistically I think that could happen if we somehow get EJ here..... Team A all day if Camby is the center

Team a... As much as I love Roy.

I really like team A, but it would be nice if we could get a little bit of a point guard upgrade too. Having one that could distribute the ball to all those scorers would come in handy.

Re: Which team would you rather see take the floor?

I like how Oden and Brandon Roy are just tagged in on the end of both options... Not that I wouldn't mind having either or both (assuming they can play about 10-15 minutes a piece. Just not a whole lot of chatter regarding either.

I'd be fine fielding either team, really. There's just no real way we'd be able to field BRoy, Hill, EJ, Kaman, West, DG, and Oden with our salary cap.

Is this a fact? If so please show proof.

And see guys wouldnt be so bad to lose Roy if we could replace him with good scoring talent.

I am so tired of everyone trying to ram Gordon or Nash down our throats that I hope we never sign either player.......:cool:

Why not? If the front office wanted to go with a sign and trade route in a three team deal in which we get EJ, Portland gets Hibbert, and NO gets ???

It doesn't matter if you can score if you have no interior defense and Roy's scoring inside. You would have a bunch of three point chuckers and haven't we already tried that? I agree there is no way Gordon or Nash come here. They will get better opportunities and more money elsewhere..... If we don't sign Roy, the chances of signing any free agents goes way down....:cool:

New Orleans will match any offer he gets.

He is not coming. People need to get over this damn pipe dream, because it ISN'T happening.

Even if we COULD land him, it would cost us Paul George at the VERY least.

Once Roy signs the offer sheet, we can't even do a S+T.

Team B- I like the defense a lot more than Team A's.

It's not a fact that he won't be here, but it's a fact that it's extremely difficult to make it happen based on the circumstances, so to just assume that's a plan B we can make happen is a mistake. If we lose Roy, it's still really unlikely we get Gordon.

To make some use of this thread, I'm on the verge of pretty much expecting Oden to sign here after his layoff now. Assuming Pritchard's still around next year anyway.

Let's go through this again.

1. NO is matching any offer to EG, even if it's a Max. So there's that (I really wish we'd all move on) The ONLY 2 ways that Gordon comes to the Pacers is if he tells NO he absolutely doesnt want to play there, and we agree to a trade (unlikely) or Gordon signs a qualifying offer with NO, becomes an unrestricted FA NEXT YEAR, and we sign him out right. Other than those two options, WE CAN'T GET GORDON!
2. We cant do a sign and trade once Roy (or EG for that matter) signs an offer sheet. It's not allowed. So ALL S&T idea's are a NO GO.
3. We wouldn't have the CAP ROOM to field "team A", but it is definitely a nice fantasy team.
4. Where is this Oden talk coming from? HE'S NOT PLAYING THIS YEAR!
